OB - Flu Infographic

My intent was to inform people about the problem of seasonal flu, for two reasons. One, I’m incredibly paranoid about such things, and hopefully an informed classmate will be one less person spewing germs in my direction.

Two, and more importantly, it’s actually a pretty big deal. Sure, not many people catch it every year. But it’s estimated to cause more deaths than things people generally worry about (like car accidents and gun violence), and can seriously endanger people. You know, small kids, your grandparents, people with asthma or diabetes, the kinds of folks you run into all the time.
